GENDER EQUALITY PLAN (2022-2026)
GENDER EQUALITY PLAN (2022-2026)
From calls for proposals with deadlines in 2022 onwards, research performing organisations (RPOs), including higher education establishments, research funding organisations (RFOs) and other public bodies from the EU Member States and Associated Countries, must have a Gender Equality Plan (GEP) in place to be eligible for Horizon Europe funding. On March 30, 2022, the Academic Council adopted a Gender Equality Plan (GEP) for 2022-2026, making IBS one of the first universities in Bulgaria to introduce such a plan. The plan has been developed and will be implemented in accordance with The Gender Equality in Academia and Research tool (GEAR Tool) devised by the European Institute for Gender Equality (EIGE) and the identified set of building blocks for effectiveness determined by the European Commission.
